News of American jewelry designer Jennifer Meyer’s engagement to Nigerian billionaire heir Geoffrey Ogunlesi sparked a flurry of reactions online. While many congratulated the couple, some couldn’t resist adding a cynical twist. One comment read, “Trying to figure out who is trying to secure the bag between the both of them 😂😂” suggesting that one of them might be a “gold digger.”
This remark reflects a common, negative assumption about relationships involving wealth—that one partner is simply after financial gain. Such comments reduce the significance of genuine love and commitment, focusing instead on materialistic motives. Instead of celebrating their happiness, remarks like these unfairly cloud the joyful moment with unnecessary doubt and suspicion.
